Artists such as the Roots, Erykah Badu, Bilal, Maxwell, Stevie Wonder and more gave a multifaceted reflection on the late artist’s musical gifts. Highlights included Bilal’s falsetto singing and his wild, rolling on the floor performance, Jennifer Hudson’s emo- tionally arresting rendition of “Purple Rain” with Wonder and Janelle Monae’s rocking medley and Prince-inspired outfits. But BET ended on a high note when drummer Sheila E, Prince’s longtime friend, collaborator and onetime fiance, took the stage to close out the show.

Beyonce was not on hand to accept her awards later dur- ing the show, as her mother explained that she had to immediately jump on a plane to London for her tour. A daughter’s tribute The BET Awards also paid tribute to another cultural icon - the late Muhammad Ali - with a heartfelt speech by his daughter, Laila Ali. Known as the “Greatest of All Time,” Ali had a huge influence on hip-hop artists either through his pre-fight speeches or through his personal struggles and spiritual convictions. He died on June 3 after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease. His daughter, also a retired boxer, got choked up as she stood in front of photo of her father holding her as an infant. She closed her speech with a simple, but important request, saying, “If he was here today, he would ask you to pray not just for our family, but for all of mankind.”— AP Laila Ali speaks during a tribute to her late father, Muhammad Ali.
